Where is the DNS configuration on HostGator?

Last updated on December 19, 2022 @ 11:55 am

The DNS configuration on HostGator is located at the following location:

  • /etc/HostGator/hosting/dns.conf

The DNS configuration on HostGator contains the following lines:

  • nameserver 8.8.8
  • nameserver 8.8.4

The first line specifies the DNS servers that HostGator will use. The second line specifies the DNS servers that HostGator will allow remote users to use.

PRO TIP: If you are looking for the DNS configuration on HostGator, be warned that it is not easily found. The best place to start is the HostGator support page, which has a search function. Once you find the support page, look for the DNS settings under the “Network & Security” section.
